He that is discontented in one place will seldom be content

Summary

This quote suggests that if someone is continuously dissatisfied and unhappy in one location or situation, it is unlikely that they will find contentment or satisfaction when they change their surroundings. It implies that a person's discontentment is not solely defined by external circumstances, but more to do with their own mindset or attitude. Thus, this quote advises individuals to reflect on their own inner state and mindset rather than solely relying on external changes for happiness and contentment.
